The Canada Warbler (Wilsonia canadensis) is a small 13 cm long songbird of the New World warbler family.

The Canada Warbler has a fairly large range of almost 3 million square kilometers. The global population of this bird is around 1.5 million birds. It is native to much of North and Central America as well as the Caribbean. This bird has a current rating of Least Concern, although it was previously rated as Lower Risk as early as 2000. At this time, there is no concern regarding possible population declines with the Canada Warbler. More

The Canada Warbler is an easy warbler to identify with its bold black "necklace" on a breast of bright yellow. It is an uncommon migrant across the state, but a common breeder in the highest mountains of East Tennessee. The breeding range of the Canada Warbler stretches across boreal Canada to the northeastern United States, and south along the Appalachian Mountains to Tennessee and north Georgia. It travels further to its wintering grounds than most wood-warblers, migrating to northern South America. More

Canada Warblers' numbers have declined due to loss of suitable habitat and has recently been assessed as "Threatened" by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada Canada Warblers have been seen twice in Europe. The first record was seen in Iceland, and the second was of a first-winter female which was found in Kilbaha, County Clare, Ireland in October 2006. More

The Canada warbler is always associated in my mind with the black-cap, in company with which it is frequently found during migration. The association is purely accidental and results from a common preference for the same hunting grounds. A path or road through swampy ground, especially if bordered by old willow trees, is sure to have its quota of this warbler and the Wilson black-cap during migration. More

The Canada Warbler is a little-studied species that typically breeds in cool, moist forests of the United States and Canada. A long annual migration takes it to its wintering grounds in northern South America, where habitat loss is a threat. Habitat degradation and loss on the breeding grounds has also negatively affected populations. Identification The distinctive black markings across an otherwise yellow throat and breast gives this warbler the nickname of "Necklaced Warbler. More

Canada Warblers, Wilsonia canadensis = Warblers Canada Warbler Canada Warblers ( Wilsonia canadensis) are found in forests across Canada, east of the Rockies, and in the eastern United States. They migrate to northern South America, and are very rare vagrants to Western Europe. Canada Warblers have been seen twice in Europe. More

Bent Life History for the Canada Warbler - the common name and sub-species reflect the nomenclature in use at the time the description was written. CANADA WARBLER WILSONIA CANADENSIS (Linnaeus) HABITS In spite of its name, this pretty, necklaced warbler is not confined to Canada, but finds congenial haunts in many of the cooler spots in the Northern States and at the higher altitudes in the Alleghenies as far south as northern Georgia. Gerald Thayer wrote to Dr. More

At all times of year, the Canada Warbler is a bird of moist thickets. It nests in riparian thickets, brushy ravines, forest bogs, etc. at a wide range of elevations and across a variety of forest types. In the northwestern parts of its range it frequents aspen forests; in the center of the range, it is found in forested wetlands and swamps; and in the south it occupies montane rhododendron thickets.

Canada Warbler has unstreaked blue-grey upperparts, canary yellow underparts, and white undertail coverts. It has a whitish eye-ring and a yellow streak on the lore. Male shows a necklace of black spotting across upper breast. It also has black sides of face and forehead. Female has dusky grey necklace. Legs are pale pinkish orange. Bill is thin and pointed. This species lacks pale wing bars and tail spots. Both sexes are similar, but female is duller. More

Canada warblers are so little studied partly because they have never been abundant. They are limited to a fairly specific niche, inhabiting dense,log-strewn understoreys in damp, mossy woods, usually near forest edges, swamps and bogs and often in ravines or on steep slopes leading to waterside thickets of alders and willows. Their nests, well hidden in moss hummocks, rotting stumps and ruts created by upended trees, are seldom found, obscured by thick fern beds and tree roots. More
